Always A First

With the newest Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game booster pack, Order of Chaos, now released, it was been revealed that the monster once called "Kuribolt" in Japanese has received an English name known as "Kurivolt". So this the first Kuriboh equivalent to not use all the letters of "Kurib", like previous Kuriboh cards before, such as Kuribon. And this little guy also has nothing to do with negating damage at all. Instead, it is a support card for Xyz Monster summoning. When a player controls one, by sacrificing its Xyz Materials, Kurivolt comes out instantly, adding a number of Level 1 monsters to the field in a jiffy. This is more supportive towards summoning Rank 1 Xyz Monsters, as for the record, all of those ones require 3 Level 1 monsters to be stacked. So it seems with each new Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series, there is a Kuriboh equivalent for each one. And in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, said equivalent is back in the hands of the main protagonist! Happy dueling, little guy!
